Development of a model forecasting Dermanyssus gallinae's population dynamics for advancing Integrated Pest Management in laying hen facilities.

Veterinary parasitology, 2017
The poultry red mite, Dermanyssus gallinae, is the most significant pest of egg laying hens in many parts of the world. Control of D. gallinae could be greatly improved with advanced Integrated Pest Management (IPM) for D.

Effects of Laying-Hen Strain on Manure Properties and Ammonia Emission [PDF]

, 2012
Ammonia (NH3) emissions from laying hens are affected by nutrient content of the diet, manure quantity, and manure properties such as moisture content, nitrogen content, and pH. These production traits may vary with strain of the hen.

Occurrence and population distribution of Withius aff. piger (Simon, 1878) (Withiidae), in commercial laying hen poultry houses in southern Brazil

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences
Laying hen house settings are favorable sites for the presence of many arthropods, e.g. pseudoscorpions, which are arachnids that are predators of ecological importance and yet are poorly studied.

Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

The ageing holobiont: crosstalk between telomere dynamics, oxidative stress and the gut microbiome

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gut tissue is at the frontline of early onset of ageing. It exhibits high cell turnover rates and rapid telomere shortening, which can have systemic effects on the developing or senescing organism. We conducted a literature review of studies on the crosstalk between telomere length dynamics, telomerase activity, oxidative stress, and gut ...
